Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Chaffey is called to order.

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: —who works tirelessly advocating within the government on behalf of people who live in regional South Australia. I would say another thing: we are very, very proud as a government to have the member for Frome sitting at the cabinet table making sure—

Members interjecting:

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: —day in, day out, for the interests of people who live in regional South Australia. Whether it be in regard to energy, whether it be in regard to health, whether it be in regard to any of the other issues that this government deals with, day in, day out, the member for Frome is there advocating on behalf of the people of regional South Australia, not only those who vote Labor but those throughout regional South Australia.

The SPEAKER: I call to order the members for Hartley and Hammond and the deputy leader. I warn the members for Mitchell and Chaffey and the deputy leader, and I warn, for the second and the last time, the member for Kavel.
